Oils are more popular than ever as moisturizers in skin care routines. However, not many people know how to apply them correctly and when to use them to maximize their effects and achieve outstanding results.

Tip: Applying the face oil before you towel off your skin is very important! 

Here are some benefits to applying oil to damp skin:

1. Increases the absorption of the oil and benefits from all the moisture and nutrients that the oil has to offer.

2. The oil will act as a barrier to keep the moisture in (the water and the oil) resulting in hydrated glowing skin.

3. On damp skin, the oil will spread evenly ensuring full coverage of the skin.

4. You will only need a few drops to keep your skin soft and hydrated.

If, however, you apply the oil to dry skin, the oil will simply sit on the surface of your skin and will not be fully absorbed. This is not only a waste of the product but also a missed opportunity to moisturize and hydrate your skin!

Another tip that can be extremely beneficial is to tone your skin before applying the oil. So instead of using tap water, consider using rose water, which is naturally high in antioxidants and minerals.

Applying the oil on skin damp from a toner will also help your skin absorb all the nutrients from the rose water along with the oils and give you a glowing healthy complexion!
